DANGER!
Using your Otto Bock product as a seat for transportation in motor vehicles for
disabled passengers
Whenever possible, users should be transferred to the seats installed in the
motor vehicle for disabled passengers. The corresponding restraint systems
should also be used. Only this can ensure optimal protection of the passengers
in case of an accident.
The modules M1, M2, M3, M5 and M6 are permissible for transporting passengers
in motor vehicles when using Otto Bock safety components and when using
appropriate restraint systems.
For more information, please refer to our instructions for use manual "Using your
Wheelchair/ Mobility Base with Seating Shell or Buggy/Stroller as a Seat for Trans-
portation in Motor Vehicles", order no. 646D158.
DANGER!
Always make sure that the quick-release axles are correctly set on the rear wheel.
The rear wheel must not be removable without the button of the quick-release axle
being depressed.
DANGER!
Slowing down from high speeds or when descending longer slopes tends to heat
up the hands and fingers, especially if using aluminum push rings.
DANGER!
When using your wheelchair outdoors, wear leather gloves. Gloves provide you with
a better grip and protect your fingers from dirt and hot metal.
DANGER!
The effectiveness of the wheel lock and the overall driving quality are dependent on
adequate air pressure.
Properly inflated rear wheel tires and equal air pressure in both tires considerably
improve the maneuverability of your wheelchair.
DANGER!
Ensure that the tires have sufficient tread depth.
When using your wheelchair in public traffic, you are subjected to public traffic
regulations.
DANGER!
Ensure you are visible in the dark. If possible, wear light-colored clothes or clothing
with reflectors, and ensure that the reflectors installed at the side and the rear of the
wheelchair are clearly visible. We also recommend installing lights.
